Tough 2A test for both teams

WIGGINS — — Neither the Wiggins Lady Tigers or the Wiggins boys' basketball teams ended 2013 with a winning record. But with stacked early season schedules, with all but two games against 3A teams, a 3-4 record for the boys and a 2-5 record for the girls is not indicative of how the conference schedule will go.

Games against those conference opponents start tonight as both teams take on Holyoke. Both the Dragon boys and girls have 2-3 records right now.

The Wiggins boys are averaging 48 points per game.

Sophomore Kaeson Risner is teaming well with senior Terran Freauff to lead the team in scoring.

Risner has 103 points this season and Freauff has 97, putting both boys in double-digit per game averages.

Austin Dinis is next on the team is scoring with a six-point average. Behind the two top scorers things are pretty even. If the Tigers cane keep getting consistent scoring behind their top two guys, they should see that win record climb.

The Tigers have been out-scored to this point in the season, but just by 10 points.

The Lady Tigers have been out-scored by 57 points this season but have all the room in the world to move up.

Anabelle Celis is by far their best scorer with 93 of the Lady Tigers' 257 points this season. She is the only Lady Tiger with a double-digit average.

Brittany Robinson is right behind with 56 points on the season.

The Lady Tigers are averaging 23 turnovers a game right now and 26 rebounds a game along with 10 steals. If they can start winning the possession game, it should translate to more offense and more wins.

Holyoke is a good starting off point for the conference schedules, with similar records and struggles early in the season.
